Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 24 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on Members' Salaries, Pensions and Allowances.


Members' Salaries, Pensions and Allowances

That is what we have said. My right hon. Friend is right. We need a clear timetable, not least because today we are asking the House only to vote on our pay increase for April 2007-08. We will therefore need a new comparator and a new mechanism. We have asked Sir John to report to the Prime Minister in enough time to enable the Government to consider the report and hon. Members to consider the report, debate it and make a decision before the House rises in the summer. I accept my right hon. Friend's point.
